Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote about a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in fact several podiatry training programs are located within these institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have acquired thorough health care training with a main focus on concerns concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to handle difficulties varying from standard ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more complicated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which furnish them the expertise vital to carry out surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and minimize the risk of countless problems which the feet routinely encounter.
